Could we have a dice roller coded into the game that every player can use?
A simple one that rolls everything up from d2s to D100s and has an option to post the rolls to the room or not and one to add a given base statistic. Just a command rather than an object or item?
More than just being used for dice games, I have found myself in situations where I will need to roll a dice as the game doesn't have the requisit mechanic to represent for example... Intimidation. I usually use an online dice roller but I recently came up against a situation where it would've been useful to help decide the outcome of some rp between several different parties and not everyone is familiar with Online dice rollers, or the specific one I used at the time so this suggestion comes mostly from wanting to avoid a very messy logistical side of having multiple unfamiliar people, break emersion to load up a website then having to be talked through using it.

In game dice roller
I trained up double-edged bananas because the uber-plantain of doom I scored from the beehive quest was the best weapon in the game. Now it's being treated like a bug and they have gimped its damage! That's not fair! My character is ruined!
Re: In game dice roller
These are already in game, including the higher dice amounts, you just have to find them.
A goblin, a trickster, a warrior? A nameless terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. A most feared being in all the cosmos. Nothing could stop, hold, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.

As commands?

Re: In game dice roller
There've been many times I've thought about suggesting this same thing myself. Times where it would be really useful to be able to actually roll dice and smote accordingly. I use die rollers for these sorts of situations, too, but it'd be nice if there could be one in game so that everyone's on the same page and can see the results instead of just hoping the other guy is being honest.
There are dice objects in game, but those are used for ICly things (like my new favorite game-in-a-game, elevensies ). If there are commands for this sort of thing, I've never seen them.

No, dice are tied to objects or locations.
